The use of electric drives instead of pneumatic or hydropneumatic driven cylinders is a modern advancement in assembly technology. SCHMIDT Technology combined its proven rack & pinion and ServoPress experience to create a new electric drive technology, providing high efficiency, full programmability and precision in a flexible pressing system.
SCHMIDT® ElectricPress 343 in combination with SCHMIDT® PressControl 700 becomes a force-displacement monitoring press system, e.g. in the following industries
Automotive / safety engineering
Assembly of radar distance sensors
Assembly of airbag control sensors
Watches / Jewellery
Assembly of bracelet links
Setting / beading of rhinestones
Computer technology
Pressing pins into hard disk housings
HDD housing assembly
≤ 1 µm resolution drive control
200 mm/s ram speed (max.)
Characteristics
Simple parameterisation minimises commissioning time
Quick changeover procedures due to retrievable operating profiles
Increased flexibility
Cost reduction of tools and their wear due to free, precise positioning.
The low noise level provides a stress-free working environment.
The design-related non-existent stick-slip effect optimises the assembly process compared to pneumatic drives, especially at low speeds.
